Follow up to “Bestiary of The Beaver State”

By oregonhistorian · On May 16, 2012

If you attended our program at The Jack London Bar last night (5/15/2012), you had a chance to watch a film about Bobbie The Wonder Dog.

I found an advertisement for the film in a July 11th, 1924 copy of the Eugene Register Guard newspaper. It was to be shown at The Heilig Theater, apparantly a silent film auditorium.

And here is a cool link talking about the history of the Heilig Theater. It’s well worth a click-through.

See – this is why you come here. For shit like this.

A true Oregon Hero. Bobbie The Wonder Dog!
